Meditation will help you to find your bonds, loosen them, untie them and cast your moorings. When you are no longer attached to anything, you have done your share. The rest will be done for you.

Image
There are no steps to self-realization. There is nothing gradual about it. It happens suddenly and is irreversible. You rotate into a new dimension, seen from which the previous ones are mere abstractions. Just like on sunrise you see things as they are, so on self-realization you see everything as it is. The world of illusions is left behind.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
In peace and silence, the skin of the 'I' dissolves and the inner and the outer become one.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
You are not the body. You are the immensity and infinity of consciousness.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
True happiness cannot be found in things that change and pass away. Pleasure and pain alternate inexorably. Happiness comes from the Self and can be found in the Self only. Find your real Self and all else will come with it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

There is nothing to practice. To know yourself, be yourself. To be yourself, stop imagining yourself to be this or that. Just be. Let your true nature emerge. Don't disturb your mind with seeking.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

It is your restlessness that causes chaos.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
In nature nothing is at standstill, everything pulsates, appears and disappears. Heart, breath, digestion, sleep and waking - birth and death - everything comes and goes in waves. Rhythm, periodicity, harmonious alternation of extremes is the rule. No use rebelling against the very pattern of life.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

The only difference between us is that I am aware of my natural state, while you are bemused.... We discover it by being earnest, by searching, enquiring, questioning daily and hourly, by giving one's life to this discovery.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

The mind creates the abyss, and the heart crosses it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
In marriage you are neither the husband nor the wife you are the love between two.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Watch your thoughts as you watch the street traffic. People come and go you register without response. It may not be easy in the beginning, but with some practice you will find that your mind can function on many levels at the same time and you can be aware of them all.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

The root of fear is the feeling of not being what you are.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

You have put so much energy into building a prison for yourself. Now spend as much on demolishing it.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Leave greatness to others. Become so small that no one can see you. This conviction results from growing devotion to the supreme reality.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
It is not what you do, but what you stop doing that matters.
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Image
Live your life without hurting anybody. Harmlessness is a most powerful form of Yoga and it will take you speedily to your goal. This is what I call nisarga yoga, the Natural yoga. It is the art of living in peace and harmony, in friendliness and love. The fruit of it is happiness, uncaused and endless.

As long as the mind is there, your body and your world are there. Your world is mind-made, subjective, enclosed within the mind, fragmentary, temporary, personal, hanging on the thread of memory.
